Standard Tote Bag

Out of stock

This is the perfect bag for carrying books, laptops, and anything else you can think of that fits. It features a flap to keep rain at bay, an inner pocket that fits pens and phones, an adjustable and removable strap, and solid construction that should last you a lifetime. This natural colored leather will darken over time and become more beautiful with use.

We produce leather goods right here in
Malmö using organic
natural vegetable tanned leather from Tarnsjö Garveri in Sweden, fine
British waxed cotton, 100% copper rivets, and 100% brass hardware. Everything is carefully
handmade; we hand sew using waxed linen thread or use an old Husqvarna sewing
machine from the thirties with high tensile strength thread for long lasting
quality.

In
terms of design, we try to use the fewest stitches possible and only add the
most basic decorative details. Simplicity and functionality is key in our
aesthetic. Dieter Rams (the German
functionalist genius that revamped the entire Braun product line in the 1960’s) developed ‘the ten commandments of good design’, which we try to honour as much
as possible.

The
leather used will get more supple and darker with age, making each piece very
personal for the user. The patina comes to represent the user’s journey through
time, perhaps through a rainstorm or perhaps through sunshine!
